Ingredients (Serves 4–6)
- 1.5 lbs (700 g) baby potatoes, washed
- 3 tbsp olive oil or melted butter
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tsp salt
- ½ tsp black pepper
- 1 tsp dried rosemary or thyme (or a mix)
- Optional: fresh parsley, chopped, for garnish
Instructions
- Prepare the slow cooker:
- Lightly grease the slow cooker with a little olive oil or nonstick spray.
- Season the potatoes:
- In a bowl, toss baby potatoes with olive oil, garlic, salt, pepper, and herbs until evenly coated.
- Cook:
- Place the potatoes in the slow cooker in a single layer if possible.
- Cover and cook on low for 4–5 hours or high for 2–3 hours, until tender when pierced with a fork.
- Optional finishing touch:
- For a golden, slightly crispy exterior, you can toss the cooked potatoes under a broiler for 3–5 minutes.

💡 Tips:
- You can add whole cloves of garlic or small onion wedges for extra flavor.
- A squeeze of lemon juice or a sprinkle of parmesan cheese after cooking can make them even more delicious.
